KILROYS HUSTLE THEIR MUSCLE BUT NOT ENOUGH TO MARK A W

Highland, IN

Game 1

Kilroys 15 FEI 15

Game 2

Kilroys 6 Bigalows 8


Kilroys show their fight as the squad regathered to hang with the two best teams in the league, FEI, a team that has blown out Kilroys the last two meetings scoring a combined 58 runs in 2 games, and Bigalows, a hard hitting fundamentally sound ball club.

The first game out of the two matched Kilroys with first place FEI. FEI came out of the closet as usually trying to place the ball to the outfield. They had mild success in the first two innings, but Kilroys outfield made some great adjustments after a visual scouting report of the lineup.

The zombie like bats of Kilroys that have struggle as of late finally came alive as the Kilroys team fought hard to stay in the game and the attitude of Kilroys and the fire that they possessed in the first half of the season returned just in time. Battling back to even the score.

Kilroys would have won the game in the 7th as the winning run was tagged out at home in a baserunning folly with time already expired. Kilroys spirits seemed to have been shattered right at home plate, but with another game at the helm Kilroys had limited time to regain their composure.

Five Minutes Later.....

Kilroys took the field tired, but not sleeping as the game against the Bigalows proved to be somewhat of a defensive battle against the mighty bats of Bigalows.

Kilroys again started off with the visiting team scoring first and it took all seven innings to record a combined 14runs. Bigalows mighty bats were moused by defense as again the defense made some adjustments and placed outfielders in the correct places to field the pop flies screaming off the bats of Bigalows.

Kilroys late rally wasn't enough as another baserunning error proved to be the finishing touch of a hard fought night. Kilroys was in position to beat the 2 best teams in the league with this makeup double header, but came up short both times. Kilroys record in now 4-7-1.

Kilroys has what it takes now and is playing the perfect team to get another win streak going. The Men of Valor. Game time is at 7:30 on June 28th.

Ask yourself one question. Who wants to be the hero? I do, I do!!!
